Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Continued initialization/Kconfig updates: hide most Kconfig options
from unsuspecting users.
There's now a single high level configuration option:
*
* RCU Subsystem
*
Make expert-level adjustments to RCU configuration (RCU_EXPERT) [N/y/?] (NEW)
Which if answered in the negative, leaves us with a single
interactive configuration option:
Offload RCU callback processing from boot-selected CPUs (RCU_NOCB_CPU) [N/y/?] (NEW)
All the rest of the RCU options are configured automatically. Later
on we'll remove this single leftover configuration option as well.
- Remove all uses of RCU-protected array indexes: replace the
rcu_[access|dereference]_index_check() APIs with READ_ONCE() and
rcu_lockdep_assert()
- RCU CPU-hotplug cleanups
- Updates to Tiny RCU: a race fix and further code shrinkage.
- RCU torture-testing updates: fixes, speedups, cleanups and
documentation updates.
- Miscellaneous fixes
- Documentation updates
